In particular, the virtual assistant has learned to search the entire library of tracks, including saved for offline listening, and at your request can find everything you record.

In addition, Siri is able to play not only individual songs but also entire playlists and even Beats 1.

Unfortunately, users from Russia and some other countries such functionality still remains unavailable owing to the lack of technical capabilities, which we have already described.

In any case it is gratifying to know that Apple is really trying to bring its product to mind, introducing new and highly interesting opportunities. I would like to believe that Russia will ever be among the priority countries, and our market will be available full versions.
